Team Care

Biography:

Dr. Majd currently serves as an adjunct faculty member at Bastyr Center for Natural Health providing supervision and clinical training in areas of immune wellness and pain management. He also is a board-certified family medicine physician who sees patients at UW Neighborhood Factoria Clinic.

Dr. Majd views patient care as a multidisciplinary approach including lifestyle, nutrition, and complementary and alternative therapies. He believes medicine is science, art, observation and communication. Sometimes patients express their conditions verbally; holistic medicine entrains one to also listen to the “body’s communication.” Based on what he observes and what the patient shares, Dr. Majd strives to bring together a holistic plan to return the patient to their optimal health.

Beyond simply delivering care, he also believes we need to empower patients through education and encouragement to take charge of their journey to well-being. Dr. Majd believes that trust and candid communication between patient and physician are critical to providing high-quality care. He acknowledges that that there is nothing more rewarding than seeing his patients return to wellness and embrace more healthful approaches to life.
